This is the page for the Graduate Research Seminar 2023-2024 run by Lidia Pereira, Steve Rushton, Kate Briggs, Marloes de Valk. The seminar will comprise individual tuition with Steve, Kate, Lidia or Marloes and group sessions on specific methods (including peer to peer commentary, editing, line-editing and proofing). The days set aside for the seminar will be devoted to achieving specific outcomes which further the research and completion of the proposal and thesis. This page will be used to upload information on your Project Proposal and Thesis and to serve as an ongoing record of research. 

== How The Sessions Are Structured ==
The sessions will be for all second year media students: Y2LB and Y2XPub. These will take the form of all-day workshops which will take place every other Thursday. 

The outcome of each session will be published on the wiki (or Pad) and reviewed by the group. Sessions will include group work, individual work and individual tutorials with Marloes, Kate, Lidia & Steve.

Achievable aims will be set ahead of the next session.
